Public bug reported: Description: - my system gets stuck at "Booting, Loading initramfs" (the first 2 lines of booting, after grub) - does not even show the enter cryptsetup passphrase - affected kernels: # apt list --installed |grep linux-signed WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts. linux-signed-generic/bionic-security,bionic-updates,now 4.15.0.50.52 amd64 [installed] linux-signed-generic-hwe-18.04/bionic-security,bionic-updates,now 4.18.0.20.70 amd64 [installed] linux-signed-generic-hwe-18.04-edge/bionic-security,bionic-updates,now 5.0.0.15.71 amd64 [installed]
- the setup is not new, has been working perfectly before (about 7 days since my last restart?) System: - HW: ASUS Zenbook 14 UX433FN - Ubuntu 18.04, runing latest HWE, fully updated - grub(-pc), cryptsetup (crypttab entries for custom encrypted LUKS setup), Suspected/possible cause?: - recent intel-microcode package update - recent kernel package updates Steps taken: - tried to remove "splash quiet" from grub/kernel cmd line (also tried adding nosplash, noplymouth) - completely removed nvidia drivers (apt purge *nvidia*) - completely purged and reinstalled grub (grup-pc) - completely purged and reinstalled all kernels (headers, modules, image, ..) - toggle BIOS "fastboot" (now using OFF) - toggle UEFI SecureBoot (now using ON) - remove plymoyth (apt remove *plymouth* , but the workaround is working with plymouth installed) Workaround: - so far, I'm only able to boot with non-Ubuntu kernel! (linux-image-liquorix-amd64) - which needs "splash" option ON I am not sure how to get you more debug info, as this setup has been working before, and it's a very eary boot-process bug, so I can't even access dmesg etc. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux-hwe (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: cryptsetup kernel-bug plymouth splash ** Also affects: linux-hwe (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-hwe-edge (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1829620 Title: cryptsetup stuck at loading initramfs Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux-hwe package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux-hwe-edge package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Description: - my system gets stuck at "Booting, Loading initramfs" (the first 2 lines of booting, after grub) - does not even show the enter cryptsetup passphrase - affected kernels: # apt list --installed |grep linux-signed WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface.
